An aircraft engine from American Airlines caught fire at Denver International Airport after the plane was diverted there on Thursday evening, officials said and forced the passengers to exhaust the wing of the aircraft when Rauch enveloped the plane.

The passengers on board American Airlines Flight 1006 were evacuated at the goal, according to a state source familiar with the incident. The flight on the way to Dallas-Fort Worth from Colorado Springs landed at around 5:00 p.m. local time in Denver, data from Flighttare.com.

The video from the airport shows dozens of passengers who leave the plane and stand on the wing of the aircraft when smoke filled the air.

Six crew members and 172 passengers exhausted the Boeing 737-800 aircraft after the engine of the aircraft at Denver Airport caught fire, a spokesman for the American Airlines told CNN.

The flight crew and passengers were moved to the airport terminal according to the explanation. “We thank our crew members, the team and the first aiders for their quick and decisive measures with the certainty of everyone on board and on site as a priority,” said the airline.

The plane landed at Tor C38, where it started fire, an international airport spokesman in Denver told CNN. The fire was deleted, all passengers were evacuated and there were no injuries, said the spokesman.

Video, which was absorbed by a woman in Montana, who is waiting for a connection flight in the airport, shows a large cloud of smoke from the plane that rises when dozens of passengers leave the plane and run away.

Leonard, who came in from Helena, Montana, said CNN that she was waiting for her connecting flight to Colorado Springs at the International Airport. Then she looked outside and saw flames and smoke that devour the plane.

“I was afraid of these passengers,” said Leonard. “I can’t even imagine how fear they must have been.”

This is a developing history and is updated.
